I love the BIG displays. Every year there is a big display at the Rose Bowl and we can see it from our front yard. We do go to the Rose Bowl some years to sit in the stands and watch it from there. They have some of the local high schools bands play and it is a happy time for all.
<^_^>
Thanks for being part of the hop and for the chance to win.

My favorite fireworks ever was the year I was in Washington DC on the 4th, and got to watch them coming up over the Potomac River.

I love the big displays. Especially the ones that after the first explosion they keep breaking down into smaller pops.

I love to see the big displays and the finale... it's always breathtaking. It's especially nice to see the reflection they make in the river!

I'm fortunate to live near a city that does a 3day firework fest over the water. The huge ones are breathtaking, but I love when there are a lot of smaller multiple ones ;)
Happy 4th!

Savannah, Sparklers are a staple of many families. I love them as well. There is something cool about using them to write your name or create designs in the air!

I love the big, colorful fireworks. But I also love watching my young nephews enjoy blaying with sparklers.
Happy 4th of July

I grew up in a big city across the river from Manhattan. From the back windows in our apartment, we watched the Twin Towers being built--rising skyward. It was a great spot from which to view the annual NYC fireworks...so my memories are of a BIG show.
Happy July 4th

I live across the river from St. Louis and get to see the amazing display every year. My favorites are the ones that flash then go "BOOM". Just bright and loud like me.!
